STEPS TO CHARGE BATTERY:
1) IMPORTANT: BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT
TO CHARGE THE MINIMOTO™ ATV,
REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE LOCK.
2) Lift up the rubber protective cover of
the charger receptacle (Fig 11)
Fig 11
3) Note that the charging port has a
“groove” inside (Fig 12). This allows the
plug to be inserted in the proper orienta-
tion to the port. Plug the charger into the
8 port.
Fig 12
4) Plug in the charger into an electrical
outlet.
5) Inspect that the RED or GREEN LED is
On. If the RED LED is ON, the battery is
charging. When properly charging the LED
on the charger will change to red. After
the battery is fully charged the LED will
return to GREEN. If there is no GREEN or
RED LED on at all, check that the power is
on from the outlet and that the charger is
properly plugged into the charging port.
NOTE: When properly charging, the RED
indicator light on the charger will be ON.
You may hear a clicking sound. This is
normal. MAKE SURE ANY SWITCHES
CONNECTING THE ELECTRICAL OUTLET
ARE SET TO THE ON POSITION.
When the battery is fully charged, a
Green light will be indicated on the
charger.
6) Before using the Minimoto™ ATV for the
first time, charge the battery for at least
12 hours. Never charge the battery for
more than 30 hours.
7) It is recommended that you always
recharge the battery for a period of 8
hours. However, 80% of the power will be
charged into the battery in 4 hours. It is
possible to use the Minimoto™ ATV after
this period but the total running time will
be reduced.
8) Remove the charger plug from the
charging port. Replace the rubber protec-
tive cover over the charging port.

Overloading may occur if you run your ATV
with too heavy a load, in too rough a ter-
rain, or up too steep an incline. Fig 22

1) If the temperature in the electronics is

too high, the sensor will shut the vehicle
14 down and a warning buzzer with a high
pitch noise will last for 10 seconds.

If this happens, you must wait for the sen-

sor to detect a lower temperature. This
may take at least 5 to 10 minutes,
depending on the outside air temperature
during the ride. The ATV should work as
normal again, after the reset.

2) If a overloading current occurs, the

buzzer will beep for 2-3 seconds and shut
the vehicle down at the same time.

Release the accelerator to reset the ATV.

Rotate the accelerator again to resume rid-
ing.

When a overloading current occurs causing

the vehicle to stop operating and NO
buzzer is heard, refer to Circuit Breaker
Protection and Reset section.
 MINIMOTO™ ATV
Low Power LED Indicator: IF YOU LOSE THE KEY:

When the battery is low and almost com-
pletely drained of power, the Low Power
LED on the front console (Fig 23) will light
up and the vehicle will start to noticeably
slow down. This will help you conserve
power to get your ATV back to the charging
area as soon as possible.
Spare Keys can be obtained by calling the
Minimoto™ Service Center for a fee. You
can also have your key duplicated at any
key shop or kiosk. It is a good idea to
store the extra keys provided in a safe
place.

If you continue to run the ATV too long

without recharging the battery, the ATV will
automatically shut down. You will see that
the RED LED is ‘ON’ but the vehicle will
not move. At this point, YOU MUST
RECHARGE the ATV to get it to run again.

characteristics and control. Over
inflation will make the tires “bulge”
outward. This will cause premature
wear of the tire. Under inflation will
cause the tire to look flat on the
ground. This will result in poor run-
ning speeds and handling. Make
sure that your tires are properly
